In May 2014, Fundacja Rosa and DUM SPIRO-SPERO Oncological Foundation are launching a new project dedicated to cancer prevention – Cancer Defence. The project is aimed at young people, in whose awareness two simple associations should form – cancer and defence.

The programme focuses on three types of cancer: lung cancer, cervical cancer, and melanoma. Above all, it aims at making the target group aware that, by using certain strategies, it is possible to prevent the development of these specific types of cancer. The programme encourages adolescents to form health-conscious attitudes and brings attention to the fact that cancer is a problem that directly concerns them. Additionally, it presents real consequences of neglecting cancer prevention, because, as our campaign slogan states, the best time to act is right now!

Schools interested in joining the programme should complete the declaration of participation and send it back to us. You can download the declaration form HERE.

Cancer Defence is a Poland-wide informational and educational campaign dedicated to cancer prevention and directed towards young people aged 14-19. It focuses on three types of cancer: lung cancer, cervical cancer, and cutaneous melanoma.

The main objective of the project is supplying adolescents with reliable, substantive knowledge as well as making them aware that, by adopting appropriate, early preventive measures, development of these three specific types of cancer can be prevented. The programme aims to encourage adolescents to form health-conscious attitudes, bring attention to the fact that cancer is a problem that directly concerns them, and present real consequences of neglecting cancer prevention.

The secondary aim of Cancer Defence is to raise awareness of cancer prevention among parents, legal guardians, teachers, and the rest of society.
